50 Best Sports Bars near North Kansas City

“I was lucky enough to host my company Christmas party in the popup holiday bar this year. I CANNOT say enough great things about the venue, food, drinks and staff! Everything was incredible and such a great value! The staff was on point. From the beginning Alexa, the event coordinator, and Adam, the general manager, made the whole process so seamless and amazing. We barely lifted a finger and all of our guests were blown away by how beautiful and fun everything was! We will 100% be having our Christmas party here every year from now on. Thank you Adam and staff for your hospitality! You made the event one to remember!“

“Absolute great place. Good people. Staff very knowledgeable & helpful! Great selection! My go to B&M!“

“Brooke was our waitress and she fantastic“

“Best trivia night ever! Go on Wednesdays“

“Great sports bar with lots of screens and lots of game options like cornhole, bowling, darts, foosball and beer pong. Had a cool evening there. I can't rate the food, I only had a few beers there. Some of the service staff obviously didn't feel like it, but they still got beer :-)“

“very friendly staff, make you feel at home and plenty of laughs,food is excellent, servers are the best and the most gorgeous girls around, bartenders are also awesome!!!“

“I always have a great time going to McFadden’s! Just celebrated a birthday last weekend and had to stop in. The staff is on point. One of our favorite bartenders is Sara. Not only is she an awesome bartender, but she is a lot of fun to be around. Our whole group loved her, thought she was very efficient and quick for us. Can’t wait to go back!“

“oh. my. God. best BLT. best chicken sandwich 🥪! Best sweet potato fries... I could go on all day! Get over here and see for yourself!“

“Went on a first date here almost 28 years ago….loved the restaurant and atmosphere. Fell in love with the man that took me there and still with him to this day! ❤️“

“I was very apprehensive about trying this place but once I got inside all my worries subsided and I was blown away by the number of drinks they offered and the amount of food they served, the portions are enough for two people to share! The wings are the best I've ever had, the beer is cold and the live music is great. What really makes me happy is the age of the patrons who frequent this establishment, 40-50 years old, not the younger crowd, my wife and I are regulars at the North Oak location“

“very good place to go have fun at“

“Great place to chill! :)“

“The food is great. Bartenders are attentive and friendly“

“ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS BAR! Nestled in the River Market District, you can be cozy with great lighting, fantastic music or games on their many TV's! KARAOKE on Tuesdays is awesome! 8-12“

“I love the out door patio. You can smoke and they have heaters in the winter. It is by far the best place in Northwest Missouri if you are a smoker. The live music they have is good. Food is consistent. The pretzel is amazing. I also like their wraps and quesadillas. The servers on the Back patio hustle and are great. It gets busy and these ladies hustle.“

“Our family eats at Nick and Jake's often and we love it!! Great food, great prices.“

“yes a great place to go.“

“Wings are the best I’ve had outside of Buffalo, but sadly the blue cheese was tasteless. Our waitress was nice but brought us the wrong appetizer and often left our drinks unfilled. If you are a Bills fan, DO NOT come here for a Bills/Chiefs game. It was torture. WAY more Chiefs fans than Bills fans and some of them were downright mean, profane, and vulgar, mocking the Bills fans and loudly chanting, “F*ck Josh Allen!” I brought my 15-year old son and I cannot say that it was family friendly. SO MUCH profanity, plus a TV right in front of our table was playing some awful blood and gore show the whole time we were there. It needed to be tuned to the game or turned off. The TVs kept losing their signal, plus they were often not in sync with each other and were always well behind the live game, so patrons were watching on their phones and loudly announcing what we were about to see happen on the screens. Plus the sound was terrible. Apparently the jukebox was messed up, so a guy was going around turning individual TV volumes up, but it was impossible to hear anything. When my son went to use the bathroom, there was no door on it, just a curtain, which he found uncomfortable. So in summary, really good wings, but don’t expect a Bills-friendly atmosphere. It was a soul-crushing experience and my son was begging to leave, but we couldn’t get out fast enough because we never got a check or the box I asked for. I found a box myself and the waitress finally took my credit card after I waved it around for a few moments.“

“Just had one of those nights where everything came together at Gael’s Public House.
The staff was super friendly and made the whole experience feel easy and welcoming.
The food was next level. You can tell it’s made fresh with real flavor. Every bite hit just right.
The vibe was exactly what I needed. Good music, perfect lighting, and the patio was so relaxing.
Definitely coming back soon.“

“Got together with friends and had dinner it was wonderful. We will be back. We went to the Northland location off Broadway and Barry Road (NKC or North Kansas City) is a town in the Northland but your location is Kansas City. Your servers were very fun.“

“Best bar in KC hands down!!“

“The staff is very friendly and the food and drinks are delicious!“

“Visited KC for a few days and Pinches tacos was the absolute best! We went back a few times in our short stay, very friendly, clean environment and the best street tacos I’ve ever had!“

“Food is solid. The atmosphere is great. Ericka is the best server I have had there by far.“

“We are in town from Indiana and this place came highly recommended! And it did not dissapoint!! Great food! Great people! Great time!!“

“Great place to just chill!“

“The food was really good. Highly recommend.“

“🚨GUACAMOLE CHANGE! We’ve been coming to Ponaks for 30 years. The guacamole has aways been one of our favorites. Today we ordered it and immediately noticed something was different. We asked the server and he confirmed that they have changed their recipe, and it’s for the worst. They’ve added “filler” by putting pico and other ingredients into it. It’s not even close to what it was. I hope they don’t start changing their food and Margaritas!!! There is a reason people keep coming back year after year! Please dont mess with perfection Ponaks!“

“We had a retirement party for my wife, the whole experience from beginning to end was beyond outstanding. Thanks to the young lady Alyia that took care of us and Adam that managed the party, the kitchen staff that made the food was awesome, a lot of compliments on it. Would definitely recommend a party or just go by there and eat. Will continue to get my business.“

“Great meatball sandwich, great service.“

“pizza is awesome. was there last night and waited 20 minutes for a server. no luck so I left. it happens so they get pass. all the other times service and food was great.“

“good food and service and nice atmosphere“

“This place has been on our list for quite some time to visit, well we finally made it here today. We were the first ones in when they opened the doors at 4pm. Andi was our server, and she was incredible from start to finish. We started with an order of the original wings and ordered a 39th Street pizza. The wings were possibly some of the best I've ever had, the sauce was phenomenal. The pizza was also outstanding (the crust, the sauce and the toppings). We are already looking forward to our next vist and will bring along some friends to join us next time. Everything was OUTSTANDING!!!“

“Lindsay and her famous pickle shots will keep us coming back every time. Best in Kansas City, if not the whole world.“

“This is a top notch place to go eat and relax. Everyone is extremely nice and welcoming, and the food is great. I personally love their pizza.“

“Very Friendly Welcoming Staff! Great Food! Great Drinks. Thank you!“

“The food was great but I wouldn’t come here on an evening of you want good service. My husband and I did a tasting tour near by and wanted something to eat before we headed back to the Air BnB. Immediately you could tell how the experience was going to be when we didn’t order drinks right away and didn’t see our server again for about 15 minutes. She was very obviously more interested in paying more attention to customers that ordered drinks right away. She didn’t give her name otherwise I would I mention here. We only got one water and she didn’t come back to us again. We went to go to the hostess to try to pay our bill, ended up stopping her as she was leaving the bar. I give 2 stars out of 5. That’s only because the food was really good. I don’t think I would come back here. Maybe during the day would be better but I don’t know if I’d come here again anyway.“

“Outstanding service! Excellent Food! Never a bad experience. Great place for sports! Go Chiefs and Hawks! Clean, Friendly…neighborhood bar!“

“We absolutely love Amigos! Great food, great prices and friendly atmosphere. Better by far than most Mexican or Tex Mex places in terms of quality, at the same or lower prices. Try the Tuesday taco special, and the charros beans!“

“Great Atmosphere Food And Service Top Notch“

“good people, Good Times, great staff, close knit neighborhood bar. you can always find a friendly face and a friendly voice at Harvey's“

“Love brickhouse! Food is unmatched. Highly recommend the Philly egg rolls, Philly cheese steak (smothered), and chicken nachos. Love that they do happy hour on Friday and Saturday (especially in this economy). Always have the best time and the staff is a vibe.“

“Wonderful service, salad was great and love watching the Chiefs!!!“

“We ate there for the first time tonight and loved the food!!! The chicken was soo good and the biscuits to die for!! Brussels Sprouts and fries great too! Service was excellent (thank you Larissa!!!) and we came away stuffed and happy! Will def be back again!“

“This place has a wonderful atmosphere and the crew that works there they're all amazing. They haveShuffle board,darts,and a couple more games to keep ya occupied. The outside patio is beautiful as well as their smoking section. The serving sizes are filling to say the least. The place of this is right in the middle of wonderful Brookside!! Great place to soak up the st Patty's day parade they have every year. Not to mention the food , it's amazing no matter what you get and they serve food until 2 am!!!“

“Great food, great drinks, great service. plenty of parking! Awesome place for Live Music and fun times! Love venues that support live music! Thank you Antioch Bar and Grill!“

“Marky Mark IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST. Aside from him watching over the ladies of the bar but also his ability to make outsiders feel welcome. We left and came back after wandering around because he made such an amazing impression. I am extremely grateful for them having/carrying non alcoholic beers. We will be back & if Marky Mark sees this! COME SEE US IN DES MONIES ?“

“great service and a ton of beer on Tap....super comfortable!!!! Can't wait to go back!!!!“
